Today we learn about weariness when feeling overwhelmed by doing good for others who are in need of someone to come alongside when they are need. The point is that such activities can leave a person exhausted. Sandy wrote, "Our place is to persevere and stand strong and tenacious in the Lord, knowing with great confidence we shall absolutely reap what we have set our hand to doing onto Him."
Let us look at others and come alongside when they have challenges that are dragging them down.
Not Growing Weary,

"Do Not Grow Weary"
Written by
Sandy Billingham
I don't know about you, but many times in ministering for the Lord I get very, very weary. There are times I just want to say, "Well Lord, maybe someone else can do this who is better qualified, and I am just too tired to carry on." I am sure many of you understand and are tracking with me on that. After all, we are all human and we have multiple responsibilities going on in our life. At times we are definitely going to get weary and sometimes feel like walking away.
But the good news is we know that what we are doing is for Him, and He knows our hearts. He totally understands us and gently calls to us to just sit at His feet and rest. The Lord will refresh us in times of weariness. The Lord will fill us up with His strength and give us all we need to continue for Him to complete His work.
His Word says...
"And let us not grow weary
while doing good,
for in due season we
shall reap if we do not
lose heart."
while doing good,
for in due season we
shall reap if we do not
lose heart."
Galatians 6:9
His Word is a direct promise to us that He will fulfill everything He tells us in His Word that He will do. Our place is to persevere and stand strong and tenacious in the Lord, knowing with great confidence we shall absolutely reap what we have set our hand to doing onto Him.
.
Now that is Great News and a Great Reminder to Not Grow Weary. The Lord Almighty will always come through and stay true to His Word!

And when we are weary because life is difficult,
we need to remember that
"We're Not Alone"
We will be given strength when we
"We're Not Alone"
We will be given strength when we
"work unto Him."
